OK, are you trying to use 'overlay' mode? i.e. where the pic is displayed
on your monitor? or output to a seperate device (i.e. tv)?

If it's overlay, i think you need to pass some options to the kernel
module to enable them. And you also need to specify the type of card you
have iirc.

ISTR that Overlay was the most flaky and most likely to crash your PC - so
beware! lol

This could all have changed from 'my day' at using the software, btw :)
